As the carbon dioxide is formed, it will leave the open beaker as a gas. This will result in a loss of mass. The mass change can then be used to find the percentage yield of the reaction. II. Aim

The aim of this experiment is to observe and calculate the percentage yield by studying the mass of yields before and after the reaction. III. Hypothesis
My assumption is that the theoretical yield will be supplementary than actual yield and so the percentage yield will be about 90%. IV. Materials

1. Weigh the crucible on the balance and record
2. Add 5 grams of CaCO3 and weigh the crucible again to make sure. Record up to 3 significant figures. 3. Pour 20 ml of 1M HCl into the beaker
4. Weigh the beaker with the HCl and record the mass.
5. Carefully add the marble chips and gently stir until all the CaCO3 is dissolved 6. Weigh the beaker again and record the mass.

VI. Results and Calculations

7. Find the limiting reagent 8. Find the theoretical yield by multiplying the amount of moles of the limiting reactant to the molar ration of limiting reactant : ratio and by the molecular weight of the product. 9. Find the percentage yield -->

...- Quasi Experimental Design: If the researcher lacks control over the assignment of participants to conditions and does not manipulate the causal variable of interest, the design is quasi experimental.
o Quasi Experiments do not have internal validity because participants are not randomly assigned to conditions and the researcher may have no control over the independent variable.
- Basic Confounds in Quasi Experimental Design are :...

...Research Question Relationship to Research Design
Lyn Shela Heck
The research question or hypotheses narrows the purpose statement. It predicts what will be learned and the questions studied. A research question must indicate a target population. It must identify the dependent variable and the independent variable(s) as well as answer what is the desired knowledge or conclusion. Accurate results come from a good research question. Variables must be clearly defined....

...TRUE EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN
DEFINED:
 This category of design includes more than one
purposely created group, common measured
outcome/s, and random assignment.
 It is regarded as the most accurate form of
experimental approach.
 It proves or disproves a hypothesis mathematically,
with statistical analysis.
Criteria for an experimental design to fit as a true
experimental design:
 The sample groups must be assigned...

...attain identification of causality. There are two primary designs in which experimenters can construct said treatments or conditions. In a “within-subjects” designexperiment, all participants are exposed to every level of the independent variable being tested. In a “between-subjects” design, participants are randomly assigned to only one level of the independent variable being tested. Both designs have their merits, and...

...Experimental design is a research method in which researcher tries to examine causal effects by manipulating independent variable under controlled settings and measures whether it produces any change to the dependent variable. In an experiment experimenter deliberately imposes a treatment on a group of objects or subjects in the interest of observing the response. This differs from an observational study, which involves collecting and analyzing data without...

Introduction
I will compare and contrast quasi-experimental research and true experiments by addressing their weaknesses and strengths. Throughout my project I will give a detailed description of my experimental method used, as well as a thorough justification of why I selected this method as well as my sampling...
